The adapter is a little on the large size and measures at 95.3 x 31.4 x 14.3mm with a 90-degree adjustable USB connector which is needed on where you install the item. If you install the adapter into the side of your laptop or PC, you need to flick the an...
Needless to say if your laptop is stuck on older WiFi technologies than the A6200 will definitely improve your connection but given the price of around $80AUD, we do find the product a little on the expensive side. The device is also backward com...

802.11ac is a new wireless standard worth getting excited about, even though it has yet to be ratified. Netgear has a solid 11ac router on the market, the R6300 WiFi Router 802.11ac Dual Band Gigabit, and an 802.11ac wireless adapter to go with it: the 80...

We've waited patiently for the world's first 802.11ac wireless internet adaptor and finally it's here in the shape of the Netgear A6200. This is a good thing, since we've complained a lot recently that all the 802.11ac routers in the world are largely use...

Only twin antennas, Limited to 867Mbps, Disappointing close, range speeds, 802.11ac draft...
Again we're disappointed by an early wireless standard. At short range and middle distances the Netgear A6200 offers nothing beyond existing 802.11n performance, but at a higher price. The one major exception is long-range line-of-sight performance, whic...

The Netgear A6200 11ac adaptor provides good performance at range which can be more than double that of a current 802.11n laptop 3x3 MIMO setup. The addition of an attractive design and the ability to mount this in a USB slot vertically are an added bonus...

When we first saw that the NETGEAR A6200 was a USB 2.0 device we were concerned about performance. After all there is a limit to how much data you can push through a USB 2.0 port. Sadly this limit is below what 802.11ac is capable of. We were glad to see...
